Description

We want to help you find the best independent coffee shops in beautiful Scotland - quickly and easily, whether you're online or offline. Your location will show up on our map alongside the the best coffee shops. You can choose the coffee shop that suits your style and mood based on the rating, review and photo.

We started off just focusing this app on Edinburgh's specialty coffee shops but we've now expanded to include all of Scotland. We're now busily adding lots more great coffee shops to the app, at no extra cost. As more shops are loaded up, we'll also upgrade the app's functionality so it's easier to navigate.

When you open the app for the first time, it quickly downloads all the coffee shop information to your phone or tablet.

You will see a list of coffee shops around you - those closest to you are at the top of the list. You can also see our informed rating for each coffee shop.

When you tap the name of a coffee shop, you see a photo, review and link to the location on the map. This map works even when you're offline - so after you've opened the app the first time, you can use it all day without needing to reconnect to the internet or mobile network. The review outlines the coffee brew method(s) available, the 'coolness' factor and an overview of the food menu.

You can switch between the shop review and map quickly and easily - so you can decide which coffee shop to go to, based on the location and review, and find your way using the map.

Once you've decided which coffee shop you like best, you can share it with your friends via Facebook, Twitter, message or email. A perfect way to arrange a catch up with friends.

This is a great app for visitors and residents alike, and is updated regularly when new high quality, specialty coffee shops open.

The reviewers live in Edinburgh, visit all the coffee shops listed and love the Scotland and our specialty coffee. Finding great coffee has never been easier!

Handy wee app for looking for somewhere to get decent coffee. Discovered lots of places I never knew existed and introduced me to the diverse range of coffee suppliers in Scotland

Decent app with lots of information. Initially didn't work but an email to the developers sorted that out quickly. I'd say it does need a redesign though, we're spoiled with all the google apps and material design and it's hard going back to what android apps looked like a few years ago!

Great content but app needs work Having the great content from Edinburgh Coffee Lovers available in a handy app is perfect fit finding a good coffee on the go. But the app has a nasty habit of leaving GPS on in the background and killing your battery 😞. Overall the app could also benefit from some design polish to make it fit with the Material Design style found on modern Android apps.

Perfect for the Edinburgh caffeine addict! This is the perfect app for coffee fans in Edinburgh. If you want to avoid the usual coffee shop chains and find some excellent independent places with great atmosphere and even better coffee, this is the app for you!
